The Olympics [a smidge]

I remembered the lyrics to the Jamaican National Anthem! And sang them along with Usain Bolt's medal ceremony. Bwee.

I have not gotten to see nearly as much as I would have liked of this year's Olympics, but I'm glad they are happening. I always love the Olympics. These are just plain the sort of sport I actually enjoy watching.

Does anyone remember ABC's Wide World of SPorts? "The thrill of victory.... and the agony of defeat." *cue skier rolling ass=over-teakettle down a snowy hill* I wish that were still on, a weekly dose of track/swimming/gymnastics/etc. But I'm glad the Olympics are on right now, even if I haven't seen much of them. Yet.

I had to confirm that I was a Uverse subscriber to watch the Opening Ceremonies, but it was a one-time-only thing; after I did, it said that henceforth any time I opened the site from my home IP address it would recognize me automagically. Perhaps you did that during the London games?

No, that was a completely different computer. :)
